My Astrological Forecast - It is a very bright future prediction for me!!!

July 25, 2007 4:20am CST
I am currently being bogged down on both, the personal as well as on the professional front. Though I do not believe much on astrology, I was suggested by a close friend of mine to visit an astrologer. Although I was not very keen on doing so, he insisted a lot and also offered to accompany me to the astrologer he had known for long time. According to the astrologer, as recently as the last saturday there has been a dramatic change in the positions of zodiac stars and this repositioning of the stars is going to give an immense professional success and personal happiness. Now I have already started having a positive attitude, but I am not sure how true his predictions would come true. Also, I am not sure of the time frame within which all this is going to happen. Now I am really in a dilemma. I want all that the astrologer had predicted to happen to me but am worried whether it will really happen.

I would say that this is why it is better to steer clear of predictive astrology. The future is not yet and the past is gone - there is only now. You have become worried about what does not yet exist and there is no guarantee of what is going to be. A peaceful mind is mind that is focused on the present moment, just looking to perfect that moment in whatever the personality does, so that the future has the best possible chance of responding in a positive way. Many years ago I consulted with an astrologer and found him to be extremely intuitive - but he did not predict the future, it was all about the path that would best suite me in my lesson in life based on the the position of the stars and planets when I was born. I found it interesting and accurate, but outcomes are purely up to me - some things I wanted to achieve, would be more difficult than others, but most important is acceptance of what is - it is karma. :-)

i too am of the same opinion. The only good thing that the astrologers' prediction has done to me is that I my attitude has turned more positive and now I am working towards achieving my goal with more vigour. It is like I now have the direction of the road known to me, the travel obviously has to be done by me. Thanks for the response, though.

Hey, Ranjeet, it is a good sign. Continue to have faith and believe in your faith. Since you have received the prediction and have started looking forward positively, don't let negative vibes tie weigh you down. Look forward with positive affirmations and sure it will come true. Blessings.

I look at my forecast now and then, but this is not all I do. if there is a problem I will find a way to solve it, doesn't matter the stars say I will find them or not. they can only tell you what happened in the sky and will it be helpful for your progress, but the rest of the work you have to do it.

Some say that astrologers are just attitude adjusters. If you are told that things are going to get better, then you start looking for the opportunities that might be risky but if you are willing to go with the change/chance then you could be successful. What you mostly have to do is just be willing to take that chance.

your prediction was good, and i hope it will come true, but predictions are just predictions. You cannot rely on it 100% and you cannot wait for it to happen. Make things happen depends on your choice and decision, and not on prediction. sometimes prediction comes true, and i hope yours too.

I've never been to an astrologer, mostly because I don't believe the stars will predict my future. Many people believe it though, hence astrologers abound. I wouldn't spend any time worrying about whether or not the predictions will come true. Your future is in your hands. If you do positive things to affect your own future, then your future will be positive. I would rather put my faith in God and trust that God will lead me to the future that is in store for me. I know that will be the best one for me. Good luck. I hope your future is bright.

astrology - we should take astrological predictions with a pinch of salt
Being a Hindu, never lose sight of what the Gita has taught us: do your work without awaiting results. It’s the best philosophy which you can follow in your life. You can not only work without tension of the results and with a calm frame of mind, the quality of your efforts will also be better and automatically you will get good results. Once we start believing and relying on predictions, you will lose focus on your immediate work and start weaving day-dreams. Most astrologers tell us good things about our future which no doubt helps us to maintain a positive frame of mind. But I would not read too much into these. When I did the horoscope of my son, the astrologer wrote down all good predictions about him, like he will go for higher education, he will be the most accomplished person in the entire family etc etc. while it feels good to read, I don’t know how much of it is true.

I think hearing just general positive things will not affect your future as it can raise your spirits and maybe give you an incentive to push yourself a bit harder. However, when they predict other things I don't think it is so good. My mum went to an astrologer and she told her that my relationship with my partner is on the rocks and there is a big possibility we will seperate. I did not like what my mum told me and now I am wondering..is this true or not and does my mum now think that we will seperate. Information like this is best kept in the dark, as the future is not yet written and it should stay that way.

Astrologers can be very accurate. You have to be sure that the astrologer you are visiting is accurate. I think it is difficult for them to pick exact time frames. Also, one's interpretion of what the astologer predicted is an issue. You will need to decide, what is immense professional success? Good Luck.

Just chill out- and let what happens happen- Make sense? That is why I don’t go to anything or anyone like that- I’m a strong believer in things happen because I make them happen- not because someone told me they will- Your professional life and personal will get better because you are doing something about it- Good luck to you!

We draw things (people, jobs, events) to us by our attitudes and our thoughts. The Universe is always listening to us and trying to meet our expectations. I'm really glad your astrological reading was so positive, but don't let your worry slow all those positive things from happening for you. Thought are things, but if you feel undeserving or cursed or unlucky then those feelings can cancel your good thought/things. I had a really positive "Cards of Destiny" reading for this year, despite a truly tough beginning (which was manifesting even before I did the reading, but was also indicated in the reading). I'm concentrating on the promised good stuff to get through the hard stuff. It can be helpful to expect the best, while using the bad as opportunities for new directions in thought as well as action. Hang in there -- "Change is the Law of Nature and Society" -- the I Ching.

Dear Ranjeetkolarkar, My future was predicted by one man not an astrologer. The man who predicted my future only took the time when I was asking him to predict my future. He predicted my future about 30 years back but he predicted my future for 5 years only because while he was predicting my future, was interrupted by my relatives since he was predicting my future with all bad things. The fact is that all his prediction about my future turned out to be true for 5 years. I went through all sort of sufferings which you would not have seen in story or movies. I suffered without any fault of mine. Subsequently I met so many astrologers but none of their prediction came true.

I'm a lot like that also, I don't believe too much on astrology, but, I read up on it, and it comes pretty close, to what I'm doing, and I use it, mostly to give me ideas, and as a "cheerleading section"! As long as I don't let it control me , I'm alright, because I have the last say! I can either go along with it or believe it, or I can just not go along with it, and not believe it! I do believe that man has the power to change his own future and destiny, and therefore has to make the final decisions!

some astrologers claim they can forecast individual destiny which most of the time is irresponsible behaviour to their clients because astrological symbols can be acted out in different surface structures. There are no distinct occurances in an astrological constellations.

Glad that your forecast was positive! I think good things happen to us if we believe in ourselves. Maybe you just needed the positive reinforcement to make them come true. Keep that positive attitude going and everything will work out.

Did anything happen yet? Don't expect it all to happen though, I know it's nice to believe those things will happen, but it's a prediction, it doesn't mean it's going to happen. Hope things are going well for you.
